But for me nobody told or asked me anything, it's always been my own questions

Could be seen that way.
But whenever I felt the inspiration (or aggravation) to dig into something, it was because I have heard someone something saying, or I was in a surrounding that supported to raise my interest. Once the interest is being raised, the quest begins.

I came to be a Christian after I was extensively studying Buddhism and was offered speeches from monks as well as other speeches online, and texts of theologian nature. I felt a great challenge by diving into these topics and also a great inspiration.
I now started the same journey with Christianity and its sources. I agree its good to find that online. Though I would prefer to have it found offline before the Internet. LoL

If it comes too easy it might not withstand something difficult.
I cannot say that I love everything about Buddhism or Catholicism, I may find something not lovable and ask critical questions, but I appreciate what they have to offer.

Pardon me if I am not in the same way enthusiastic but that is already the beauty of being different. I think to be a "good" Christian, you have to remain critical towards how scripture is being interpreted and how religious habits are being altered.
